Coleman, J. v. Parkland School District, Aplt.

Summary

Justice Brobson writes a concurring opinion agreeing that Section 712.1(a) of the Sunshine Act is unambiguous and must be read using the plain, disjunctive meaning of “or,” but he departs from the majority by refusing to apply the federal absurdity doctrine to the broad exception in subsection (e). He concludes that the statute’s language controls even if the result appears absurd, leaving any policy correction to the General Assembly.
